in the cOMMUNITY
With more than 70,000 individual mineral owners leased
in the urban area, Dale is the leader in urban development. Safety,
security and quality of life are of the highest priority for Dale.
Because Dale specializes in working within heavily populated urban
areas, we place a strong emphasis on safety and sound abatement,
using next-generation, urban-friendly sound techniques and drilling
equipment.
Dale is committed to bringing value to the communities
and take an active role in improving the quality of life by sponsoring
local programs, funding improvement projects, and working with the
residents to provide information and education about how drilling
will affect the area. We provide training programs for local fire
departments and develop relationships with emergency personnel.
Working closely with local community groups and neighborhood
associations, we ensure that the concerns of the people are heard.
Dale is the first company to offer its communities 24-hour access
to a community liaison.
YMCA
Dale made a contribution to the McDonald YMCA in Southeast
Fort Worth. This donation allowed the YMCA to update their workout
facility and add 15 new pieces of equipment. 4 new flat panel televisions
were added in the update as well as a dividing curtain in the gymnasium.
The curtain allows for more basketball games to take place, aerobics
and multiple activities to happen all at the same time.
FW Cats
Dale sponsored the FW Cats “City of Fort Worth
Night” complete with Mayor Moncrief bobbleheads. Dale’s
tickets were donated to students and family from Sycamore Elementary
School.
South Davis Neighborhood Association
Dale
made a donation to the South Davis Neighborhood Association (SDNA)
through the Arlington Preservation Foundation. The funds were distributed
to the Arlington High School Fine Arts Department and the South Davis
Elementary Scholarship and extracurricular activities fund. SDNA
will also add sign toppers to the street signs in the neighborhood
and make improvements to the Howard “Gumpy” Moore
Park.
Our Great Northside Friends
For over 18 months, The San Jose Mutual Society has
graciously allowed our Northside Division to use their facilities
for meetings. In return, Dale sponsored their anniversary celebration
in 2006, donated new chairs and tables for the facility, and donated
funds for the historical renovations to the adjacent property.
Donation Benefits Riverside Community
Dale presented a check for $20,000 dollars to the United
Riverside Neighborhood Association in October of 2007. Dale has been
working with the neighborhood for over a year to secure hundreds of
mineral leases. The funds will be used to construct a new pavilion
and sidewalk in Louella Bales Baker Park.
White Settlement Animal Shelter Upgrade
Dale is
very active in White Settlement and wanted to support another organization
who works many hours to benefit White Settlement. The City’s
Animal Shelter was in need of improvements and Dale was able to
step in and provide the shelter with all brand-new electronic equipment
to help increase the probability of adoption for all the sweet,
barking residents.
Annual Angel Tree
Every year, the employees at Dale adopt their own Angel
Tree. In 2007, we had the great opportunity of providing Christmas
for over 300 kids in Fort Worth.
